Surely it is!! Not only poor idiot Tom said - 
poor idiot Ned confirmed.
So, a simple exercise for poor idiots. A football
player while jumping up hit the ball moving his
head. Describe coordinate system related with
this head movement.

Well, lookitthat! The dumb polack says he understands.

Poor idiot Woz. You sure do find it easy to play the dumb polack,
don't you?

It's football when you hit the ball with your foot, fuckwit.
What you described must surely be some idiot European game...
not hand-ball... oh, of course, head-ball!

What's next, I wonder? Stomach-ball? Dick-ball? Pussy-ball (for
the ladies)? Mmm, I'd like to see that!

ROTFLMAO!!!

You know very little. As expected from a poor idiot.

> What's next, I wonder? 

How about - your description of a coordinate
system I asked?

Wrong again, Woz. For example, I know you're a dumb polack,

Still your knowledge isn't very impressing.

There you go: that's three things already.

Oops, four ... no, five. You misspelt "is" and "impressive".

Oh, darm it! Six. Your syntax is deplorable: you should have
omitted "still".

Sorry, I didn't. Your very little knowledge is also
false in a big part.

Everybody knows that nobody ever uses math or correct English once you 
get out of school so that's why we no longer teach it wasting everyone's 
time. It's just like cursive writing and photographic film. I remind you

Well, no...

Most people use only the simplest forms of mathematics, once they have 
left school.

But there are exceptions to this rule. Engineers for instance need math 
to construct - say- turbines.

All the other scientists need sufficient knowledge of mathematics, too.

And physicists need the most knowledge in this realm, since many aspects 
of physics are purely mathematical.

Proper English is something useful, too, especially if English is you 
first language and you have a job, that is more challenging than 
flipping burgers.

If you are native speaker of English, you should certainly have mercy 
with those, who aren't and would not insist in correcting  tiny errors.

Since if you are a native English speaker and try to correct someone 
from Poland (or Germany), those could 'correct' your Polish /German as 
well.

"Everybody knows"? In a science newsgroup? Really?

Nope. Teaching it stopped in 1976 because of the groundbreaking
discovery in 1975 that correcting kids' errors could hurt their
feelings.

> It's just like cursive writing and photographic film.

Even now, there are still times we need to write stuff.

The important thing here's not the year: it's the understanding
that all of our natural languages (even Polish) are, in essence,
communications protocols; get the protocol wrong and you get
MIScommunication.

Right, poor idiot. You really should learn the 
meaning of "football" before insisting on
"football is  when you hit the ball with your foot".

No. Kids just love to be corrected. That's what their brain is designed 
for.

They check things out and adults tell them, what is right and what is not.

But if you don't tell kids, what they should do and what not, they will 
not know, unless they check it out themselves.

This could cause casualties, since a few tries could be fatal. And so 
the kids will not appreciate this non-teaching.

To teach kids, you actually don't need to be rude. Just tell them, what 
is right and what is not. But it is necessary to check that out in 
advance, since kids want good advice.

Tell that to the Politikal Korrektness Kult in English-speaking
countries, Thomas. They really do believe what I said. I watched
a spokesork from the Victorian Primary Teachers' Association[1]
tell us exactly that during their 1975 campaign to have grammar,
spelling and phonetics removed from the public school curriculum.

She told us (and this is verbatim - I was so shocked by it that
I can't forget it) "As long as they inderstand each other; that's
all that matters".

BTW; when you read my stuff in future, it will hekp if you have
your irony detector turned on.

> That's what their brain is designed for.

That's a teleological-sounding error. It's not designed.

Agreed (irony being a case in point).

But understanding the other's words *as that person intends them*
is indispensible, wouldn't you agree?

Here we have it again:

'Intentional bad behaviour' is apparently a common phenomenon in politics.

So, a little more than 'just understand each other' is not all, that 
matters. And certainly public education could do more than this.

How about things like foreign literature or own writing skills?

I personally think, that intellectual misbehaviour of politicians is 
somehow rewarded. IOW: the more idiotic the policy, the higher someone 
climbs the hierarchy.

And 'political correctness' is certainly among the more idiotic concepts.

I did realise it, but had chosen to write something more sober.

well, maybe...

Hi Mr. Heger

I take it you are Living Out of the United States.

Unless you Live Here in the USA & are Able to free your (Consciousness & Critical thinking) from the (Perpetual Jingoistic Nationalistic Brainwashing) & can focus your Attention on Truly Observing the Purposeful Brainwashing & Group-think Effort, this Goes Largely Un-Noticed Because the Children Grow up Inside it for 18 years.

The Ones who Do Notice the Ridiculousness of it  and Do Not Conform to the jingoistic Brainwashing are Ridiculed and Ostracized and Driven away From active participation in society ... As to Not Infect the rest of the population with the "Disease of Free Thinking".

All of America is simply a "LIE" designed to Deceived as many people as possible to make them as exploitable as Possible & as Passive/Submissive as Possible for personal gain of "Others Leisure Resources".

All of America is simply a "LIE" to Deceive and Exploit.

Well, not quite, since I don't see the USA THAT pessimistic and the 
quote mentioned above stems from Australia.

I think, there are several independent substreams acting in the society. 
And some people want the masses more exploitable, while others don't.

So we have opposing forces, that push and pull (according to their 
agenda) on the society.

At the end things are not as one side wants, nor in favour of the other. 
Most likely the results are somewhere in the middle.

This not bad at all, since this is usually the most acceptable result 
for the majority.
